Phoenicia Restaurant - Metairie

Delicious chicken shawarma!!! Best hummus I?ve had in the state! If their To Go is this good, I can?t wait to dine in!!! One of the few middle eastern restaurants that gives you quality over quantity with their portions!!! Great meal!!!

I stumbled upon this restaurant the other day and was pleasantly surprised. I love my Mediterranean food and have had some of the best in the country. This place was fantastic! Excellent service, good pricing, family friendly, great cocktail and wine selection. If you?re coming into town to visit the Bass Outdoor Pro Shop, this place is basically in the same shopping area.

Oh, boy. I used to occasionally visit this restaurant when I lived in New Orleans years ago. The food was good, and it was often busy. I am back in town this month and stopped by this restaurant twice as I had had good experiences previously. When I dined in last week, the waitress took a long time to bring out even our drinks as well as everything else, but I thought it was understandable as she was working alone. When I stopped by earlier today to pick up an orderI had placed online, I had to wait a total of about 70 minutes. There was only one table dining in, two other noticeably irritated customers, the waitress and two other male staff members (perhaps one was the owner? who didn 't seem to bedoing much of anything. The waitress was told by both customers before that something was missing from their order, and when one lady asked for her missing salad dressing, she rudely replied for what??? When my food was finally ready, oneof the other customers told me to double check my order. She had received a lot of pita bread for her hummus, but I only received two pieces. When I asked the waitress for a little more, despite having been made to wait such a ridiculousamount of time and having received an abundant amount of pita with my hummus the week prior, she told me that it would be an additional charge. She then proceeded to lecture me in detail that bread, lemons, etc. had gone up in price andthat the owner was struggling to stay in business. I understand the situation, but I was really surprised that she would share that instead of even simply apologizing for the inconvenience. The look on the other customer 's face was completeshock. Not once did they apologize for anything. Undeniably some of the worst service I have ever received. Will not be going back again. If you are allegedly having a hard time staying in business and have little traffic, the least youcould do is focus on providing decent service for the few people who are willing to eat at you

I am a frequent lunch guest. My wife and I ordered at 9:05 pm and thirty minutes later this garbage is what we received. This is NOTHING like what is normally served. My 2 ?sides? was a literal HALF of a whole pita bread?. Not even one whole piece, ice cold and the most bland rice I?ve ever eaten. If the order was too late then CANCEL THE ORDER. Don?t charge me for this garbage. HIGHLY DISSATISFIED and frankly disappointed. I will be going to your competitors who have agrasp on quality control.

Tee is great. chicken shark and lentil soup is good, but the service? a piece of garbage....unattentive... without urgently in front of place to finish their order.
